The three bodies were then thrown into a pit close to the gallows, while the heads were placed, with then-court president John Bradshaw's in the middle, at the

Non-musical history for today: 1915 – An act of Congress created the United States Coast Guard as a branch of the United States Armed Forces. Unlike its sibling, the US Marines, it isn't automatically under the command of the US Navy. During peacetime (or non-wartime), it is administered by the Department of Homeland Security (which is a BS department, by the way), but an act of Congress or direction of the President, the USCG can be the charge of the Navy or Department of Defense.

Non-musical history for today: 2010 – Apple announced the iPad, a tablet computer. I was excited about it, but not the cost. I still have never owned on, opting instead for Amazon Kindles and Samsung Galaxy Tabs.

Non-musical history for today: 1971 – Charles Manson and four "Family" members (three of them female) were found guilty of the 1969 Tate–LaBianca murders. I'm sure I've talked about it before. It was gruesome, disgusting, and uncalled for. The perpetrators convicted were Tex Watson, Patricia Krenwinkel, Leslie Van Houten, and Susan Atkins. Linda Kasabian was present at both murders but was given immunity for testifying against Manson and the family. Watson, Krenwinkel, and Van Houten are still

Non-musical history for today: 1536 – King Henry VIII of England suffered an accident while jousting, leading to a brain injury that historians say may have influenced his later erratic behavior and possible impotence.

Non-musical history for today: 1973 – The Supreme Court of the United States delivered its decisions in Roe v. Wade and Doe v. Bolton, legalizing elective abortion in all fifty states.

Non-musical history for today: 1983 – The International Olympic Committee restored Jim Thorpe's Olympic medals to his family.
